Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have attracted intensive interest from both academia and industry due to their wide application in civil and military scenarios. Recently, there is a great interest related to routing process in WSNs. Security aspects in routing protocols have not been given enough attention, since most of the routing protocols in WSNs have not been designed with security requirements in mind. This paper surveys the current challenges of WSN. It will focus on the attempts of building an Artificial Intelligence (AI) based routing protocols in WSNs. This paper also identifies the WSN security trends and threats. The paper also addresses some examples of how to use artificial intelligence in the routing algorithms and shows the advantages and the drawbacks of each. A proposed framework also has been introduced. Finally, the future directions of WSNs have been declared.
